Anyone that pays that much over msrp is stupid... Blah blah blah..” if you are adamant about never paying more then msrp for a watch, and will not buy that watch until you are able to purchase it for msrp, good for you! I wish you the best of luck in finding it quickly. If you desire a daytona (or just about any ss sport model) and are willing to pay 25k, 30k or 100k then good for you! Go ahead and buy it. Who is anyone to question how much you spend for a fine timepiece you desire. Heck, most people find it ludicrous i spent $10,000 for any watch when i bought my sub. If someone else was not as fortunate as i to find it at msrp, desires the piece and spends 13, 14, 15 25k for it, then that is their choice and congratulations! I just find these “holier then thou” posts about never paying more.... Quite pompus. If that is your choice, more power to you. If others choose to pay higher to obtain a fine timepiece they truly desire, that does not make them any less intelligent, less passionate, or less of a wis then you are.


Ok, that’s it; mini-rant over. Please continue and accept my apologies op for going off track.
